Arlington police say theyre working with the FBI after two pipe bombs were found in a Ballston home.
The discovery was made Tuesday afternoon after police arrested 34-year-old Ryan Bosnick, while he was walking back to his house on the 1100 block of N. Stuart Street. Bosnick had been accused of making violent threats and possessing a sawed-off shotgun that he reportedly showed to friends at a Clarendon restaurant the day before.
The county bomb squad safely removed the pipe bombs from the home last night. Bosnick is being held without bond on numerous charges.

The police said in a statement Wednesday that they got a call Monday evening from two people eating at a restaurant on North Fillmore Street who said Bosnick, who had been eating and drinking with them, was threatening people.
The witnesses said Bosnick opened his backpack and revealed a two-piece shotgun made from metal pipes and a bag containing suspected shotgun ammunition, the police said.
The police say they got in contact with a woman he was allegedly making threats to, who told them Bosnick had been sending her threatening texts.
